VBFNLO LHE files not read

Hello again

when trying to inlcude some samples generated with VBFNLO (most current version), I noticed that they are not read by MA, due to the header structure:

ERROR: No header has been found. The file is skipped.

I have copied a minimal lye after this message. I checked with the LHE standard definition and it appears that the VBFNLO file conforms to it.

One can "fix" this by replacing the VBFNLO header with one of a MG generated LHE file. Now is this a bug or does MA need some info from the header to properly function?

Thanks and cheers
Philipp

 pp -> Z Z jj -> l+ l- l+ l- jj

Z pair + 2 jets production in vector boson fusion with decay into charged
leptons.
The Higgs contribution is included.
Process is implemented at LO and NLO QCD.
This process can be run in the AdS Higgsless and Three-Site Higgsless scenarios using:
   "kk_input.dat" or "kk_coupl_inp.dat".
Anomalous couplings can be set in "anomV.dat".
This process can be run in spin-2 models using:
   "spin2coupl.dat"
